Cybersecurity Compliance Analyst

Decision Point Security, Inc Cybersecurity Compliance Analyst Remote
· Full time Company website

We are looking for a driven, mid-level professional who brings a strong technical background to our dynamic team. This role bridges the gap between technical engineering and Risk Management Framework (RMF) compliance by conducting in-depth NIST 800-53 control reviews and SRG/STIG assessments on Department of War (DoW) cloud architectures. Unlike traditional compliance roles, this position is deeply integrated into the technical lifecycle.

You will participate directly in engineering working groups, providing actionable recommendations to systems and software engineers to ensure our deployments are secure by design. If you possess strong written and oral communication skills, in-depth technical aptitude, and the ability to solve complex challenges in a fast-paced environment, we want you on our team!

Decision Point team has over 150 years combined experience delivering solutions based on sound research principals and critical thinking. Members of the team have been trusted with hardening and assessment of some of our nation’s critical defense infrastructure and weapon systems.

We understand that achieving and maintaining adequate security requires thorough understanding of people, processes, and systems.

Challenges associated with each of these areas are dynamic and can be costly. Let our team work with you to deliver practical, cost effective solutions.
